P class properties being overided

I have an instance where some p class properties are being overided by the main p class properties.

In the main p class properties, I have Arial 11px text with the text being justified.

In the alt p class I have Verdana 10px text with the text being left aligned. The problem is the text does not inherit the properties of the alt class. I haven't had this problem with CSS before. I have used multiple p classes on other sites, but haven't had this problem. Maybe I am missing something.
